For people who are looking to renew their contract but can't find a phone at their service provider or at Apple store.

Here are some places that may have them in stock and can do Fido / Telus / Rogers / Bell renewal if they have the phone in stock.

London Drugs
Future Shop
Best Buy
Wireless Wave

Apple can do renewal but the the phones are locked to Bell/Telus/Rogers/Fido etc.. depends on which provider you renewing.

Factory unlocked phones can be bought at Apple Store for $649 (16GB), 749 (32GB) and 849 (64GB) + Tax

I got same pricing as new customer and also $50 rebate for hardware upgrade from rogers

Fido just said phone and SIM shipped!! Wonder how long it's gonna take. Ordered through retention on Friday morning and at UPS's hand today. That's not too bad I guess~

I believe the 6gb offer was until end of september but I think you can still get it if you ask nicely

Just got mine yesterday, too bad Siri doesn't work with restaurants and mapping in Canada.

When does the Jailbreak come out for IOS 5

There is no estimated time at this point, but the dev team said it is definitely possible. Everyone is still waiting for it right now sigh.

Anyone have issues with the 3G connectivity? My 4s keeps going on edge when in my house. But I never had any issues with it on my 3GS

Then what do they do to lock the phone? I bought mine outright from apple but activated my sim there

^ they have their magical hocus pocus ways

MTV Cribs 10-20-2011 03:07 AM

If you pay full price for the phone, then the imei of the phone goes on Apple's whitelist database so when you connect the phone to iTunes to activate it, Apple's server will tell the phone to stay unlocked. If you have a subsidized phone, then it's not on the whitelist so Apple's server will tell the phone to locked to the provider that subsidized your phone.

Q1: Do you plan to change provider within the 3 years? or move?
Q2: Do you travel alot and often want to buy local (your travel destination) pre-paid?

Q3: Do you want to jailbreak to unlock it?

Don't think it will work because if you want to put your old number on the new sim, your old sim becomes obsolete.

i use to carry bb+iphone everywhere

if you want the best of both worlds

put the simcard into your blackberry(so u can use bbm and shit) and wait for untethered ios5 jailbreak and download IBLUEVER from cydia

which lets you use/tether/data using bluetooth from ur BB to iphone/ipod


im currently waiting for untethered jailbreak so i can do this with my bb+ipod touch :)

shawn79 10-20-2011 08:06 PM

might return it and get an android

Apple (Canada) - iPhone 4S - Buy directly from Apple in store or online.

9pm everyday, i think because i reserved mine on Monday and next day i picked it up.
If you're going to reserve i advise you to spam f5 at 855~9 because shit goes out fast lol.

Ikkaku 10-20-2011 09:50 PM

yeah, kind of like for the Ipad2's you pretty much have a span of 5 minutes to get your order through, if you are lucky enough to add it to cart.
